Here's the stamps from a package that Philabulle compiler Thierry sent with Tintin and other cartoon stamps. Unfortunately, when I mailed a package in return to him, the clerk didn't hear when I asked for $36 worth of stamps and instead gave me a printed postage label.

I was planning on coating his box with Marvel Comics and Star Wars. Oh well.
